| Bacchus is a Japanese brand based in Nagano. It is a subsidiary of Divider, which owns the large Asuka Factory, a guitar factory. The high quality possible only because the factory itself produces its guitars is highly regarded by many musicians. This model is a WOODLINE model in the Japan Tune-up series, a new series created with the aim of achieving high quality. The Japan Tune-up series is manufactured overseas, with nut adjustment and fret filing performed domestically. This allows for high quality while keeping prices low, rivaling the top quality of Japanese-made guitars in every aspect. I actually saw the work being done in Divider's workshop in Nagano, and the careful finishing of each guitar is no different from that of the top-of-the-line HANDMADE series. The WL-5 is already a popular model, and its high quality has been highly praised. This newly released model features a gorgeous quilted maple body top. As you can see, the looks are impressive, but you wouldn't expect it to be in this price range. I was surprised. This is usually unheard of, but I think what's great about Divider is that they can bring about innovations like this. The neck is also made of roasted maple. Roasted maple is a wood that is highly stable when treated at high temperatures, which evaporates the moisture and oils inside the wood. It was originally a building material for Finnish saunas, and is particularly resistant to high temperatures and humidity. Bacchus also has many passive models, but this AC model is equipped with an active circuit. Making full use of the two-band treble and bass EQ allows for powerful sound creation. The super smooth playing feel, typical of the brand, is a distinctive feature, and the sound is also smooth. Roasted maple is known for its smooth attack and mellow tone, and this model is no exception. Specifications like these are not usually found in this price range. You get a powerful sound with a smooth response. It's so comfortable to play, you'll want to play an instrument like this for a long time. An exceptional product with an incredibly low price and high quality. I'd like to thank Divider for shaping the modern musical instrument industry, where products like this are an option. This is an official manufacturer outlet product. As this item has been stored for a long time, there may be cosmetic scratches. A warranty is provided for all other aspects. ●SPECS Body Top: Quilted Maple Body: Nyato Neck: Roasted Maple Fingerboard: Roasted Maple Nut: PPS Bridge: JB bridge with brass saddle Machineheads: Open gear Fret: Nickel Silver Pickup: Original JB set Preamp: Bacchus BBP2 Controls: 1 Vol, 1 Bal, Treble, Bass, Preamp On/Off Switch Scale: 864mm (34 inches) Fingerboard Radius: 400R Width at Nut: 45.0mm Finish: Open-pore Strings: D'addario XL-165-5 Accessories: Gig bag, warranty card, wrench Included: Original soft case Text: Shunsuke Saga Inspection: Miura Manufacturer's warranty included Item will be shipped in a sturdy cardboard box.
